DOOM Eternal Gameplay Video

So for those of you that weren’t aware Bethesda announced their sequel to the 2016 hit DOOM at E3 2018. Well a couple days ago they released a 20 minute gameplay video at QuakeCon for the new DOOM Eternal game, and it looks even more intense than any of other games that has come before it. Personally I am a huge fan of the DOOM franchise and really enjoyed the last one that came out. I played it a lot on PS4 and even streamed it quite a bit on our Nerdgasm Needs YouTube channel. The environments and level designs were great, the multiplayer was fun and fast paced, the customization for your multiplayer character was awesome, and judging by this latest video things are only gonna get better!

DOOM® Eternal™ is the direct sequel to the award-winning and best-selling DOOM® (2016). Experience the ultimate combination of speed and power as you rip-and-tear your way across dimensions with the next leap in push-forward, first-person combat. DOOM Eternal puts you in control of the unstoppable DOOM Slayer as you blow apart new and classic demons with powerful weapons in unbelievable and never-before-seen worlds. With updated armor and an arsenal of new and improved equipment, including a shoulder-mounted cannon with flamethrower, extendable blade, and a new dash ability, you’re faster and deadlier than ever. Destroy every demon in your path with an upgraded array of guns and mods, including the Super Shotgun’s new Meat Hook attachment to pull yourself point blank with the faces of hell.

DOOM Eternal takes place on Earth this time rather than on Mars and once again another portal to Hell has been opened up…Just can’t seem to keep those damn things closed. The graphics look amazing and to be honest I am still very impressed with the graphics from DOOM 2016, but the new DOOM looks amazing. A lot of the weapons that we have come to know and love are still there but with some cool new upgrades. DOOM guy himself has some new abilities most notably the giant blade on his left forearm. This new blade can be used as a grappling hook to propel yourself towards enemies and just about anywhere on the map. Of course Bethesda made sure that this blade has a lot of function as a good old fashioned melee weapon as well.

Also one awesome new feature that is coming to DOOM Eternal is the ability to plays as demons in other people’s games. Apparently you will be able to team up with others and form a sort of demon gang to hunt down other players. This will supposedly be similar to the way it works in Dark Souls. Bethesda also announced that there will actually be twice as many demons in DOOM Eternal than there were in DOOM 2016. That is a Hell of a lot of demons (pun intended)! Finally, as talked about in the video below, the demons will actually take noticeable damage and their bodies will degrade with every hit they take. Bethesda is calling them “destructible demons.”

All in all DOOM Eternal is looking amazing and if you were a fan of the last one or any of the DOOM games that came before it then you should definitely be excited for this one.
